That says more about society today than the bank imo the poor old girl might not have spoken to anyone else that day and may not know when she'll speak to anyone next. When I am at work I encounter someone similar once every couple of weeks, yeah it's a bit of a chore listening to him especially when he gets on to the Korean war but tbh rather that than just be another person that doesn't have time for him, must be a lonely existance.
Alternatively the old bint in the bank might just have been a talk a holic in which case, move along granny.
